American war planes have reportedly launched a strike on a gathering of ISIS leaders, critically wounding their leader.
Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi was hurt in the strikes today, according to local witnesses and government sources.
Two witnesses confirmed that bombs had fallen on the town of al-Qaim, next to the Syrian border.
Local
government sources described how an aircraft had swooped over a meeting
of senior ISIS figures and dropped its payload, killing more than a
dozen people.
Another witness said that eight people had died when a bomb struck a market.
A local hospital was said to be overwhelmed with the volume of patients from the raid – including al-Baghdadi.
Local
ISIS officials were reportedly roaming the streets with loudspeakers
ordering residents to donate blood to help the wounded.
Striking
Baghdadi would be the most significant blow yet in the campaign against
ISIS, who have been defiant in the face of sustained air attacks from
the U.S. Air Force and allies.
A provincial leader from Anbar in western Iraq, as well as his deputy, are said to be among those killed instantly by the bombs.
Al-Qaim and the
neighbouring Syrian town of Albukamal are on a strategic supply route
linking territory held by Islamic State in Iraq and Syria.
